Constance Zimmer—you know her as Dana Gordon on Entourage—plays a reporter at The Washington Herald on the groundbreaking, Netflix-only drama. It stars Kevin Spacey as a South Carolina Congressman, Robin Wright as his wife, and Kate Mara (sister of Rooney) as another Herald reporter.

Netflix ordered two seasons (26 episodes) of House of Cards from the get-go in 2011, but it's unclear whether David Fincher will direct any from the new batch. Tech mogul Sean Parker was recently announced as a guest star; he'll play a venture capitalist. The show will be shot in Maryland, like season 1.
